How does this site determine which three artists to list?

I was surprised to find that members who like Dave Matthews Band also like DC Talk... what the heck? 😁

Probably because DC Talk is the shit.


Also, I'm pretty sure it determines this via what albums are common in the charts of users who also have that album in their charts. It's pretty obvious if you look at an album that you added to the database that isn't in many charts. e.g. There's an album ("Paper Sun") that is featured in two of my charts and one other chart, and so it says that other people also like albums that are in both of my charts that that "Paper Sun" is also on.

Yeah, for albums that appear in only a handful of charts those don't really mean anything.
